KEY REASONS TO BUILD WITH ICF
Insulated concrete formwork is often referred to as being like Lego, but the efficient build isn’t the only benefit to this method
Intuitive, quick and weather-resistant, with impressive thermal performance and excellent durability, insulated concrete formwork (ICF) offers a host of benefits. Building with ICF involves stacking a series of lightweight hollow blocks (usually of expanded polystyrene, EPS) with interlocking profiles to form your external walls. Steel reinforcement is inserted into the cavities, to the structural engineer’s design, and the formwork is then braced and aligned – ready to accept a pour of suitably-specified concrete.
